Interview Question and Dialogue

The typical interview starts with the question, “Tell me about yourself.”  This is the perfect entree for you to highlight your accomplishments and abilities. Rather than starting with I was born in XYZ town and decided early on that I wanted to be a doctor, start by highlighting your most significant accomplishment. If possible, your accomplishment should be quantifiable as well as 0ne of quality. For example,  “I have published 10 research papers or . . .  developed a rehab unit whose census climbed to 20 in the first year.

If you are on experienced doctor, try not to overload the interviewer with your knowledge of the field. Sometimes when you say too much, it uncovers information which may not be accurate and therefore to your disadvantage. Even though you are an expert, the interviewer ultimately wants to feel that you will be a team player and not always wanting the limelight.
